AFAIK G-Sync on laptops uses eDP adaptive sync which existed before DP adaptive sync and G-Sync because of the different way laptop displays work with the scaler which allows things to work a bit different again.

The G-Sync module can be used to more tightly integrate overdrive type functionality with the variable refresh for enhanced pixel response, the extra buffer(s) made possible at the monitor end make it easier to implement advanced handling of window/desktop variable refresh and potentially other advanced features and seem to facilitate more advanced techniques for dealing with low framerates.

(Not disagreeing)Iv'e got both, G-Sync laptop, G-Sync monitor and also owned a FreeSync panel, they all perform the same regardless, tear free gaming across the vrr, Nvidia could implement Adaptive Sync easily into discrete on a whim if they wanted, wouldn't put it past them to have the capability on existing gpu's.

Yeah in actual operation there isn't much to choose between them a lot of the time - I can notice the difference sometimes in low framerate handling but then if you are dropping to those kind of framerates it isn't going to be a great experience regardless of which you are using.

There are benefits to having a programmable module at the other end though if they choose to exploit it for more than barely used almost incidental features.
